About This Item
E-080: Univ of Chicago Pr. Very Good. 1998. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by The University of Chicago Press, Chicago, IL, 1988. Xx, 234 pages. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. This provocative, lucidly written reconstruction of utilitarianism focuses on the practical constraints involved in ethical choice: information may be inadequate, and understanding of causes and effects may be limited. Good decision making may be especially constrained if other people are closely involved in determining an outcome. Hardin demonstrates that many of these structural issues can and should be distinguished from the thornier problems of utilitarian value theory, and he is able to show what kinds of moral conclusions we can reach within the limits of reason. EB; 9.0 X 6.2 X 0.9 inches; 254 pages .
